Excerpt from Touch and Go
A People's Theatre. Since we can't produce it, let us deduce it. Major premiss: the seats are cheap. Minor premiss: the plays are good. Conclusion: A People's Theatre. How much will you give me for my syllogism? Not a slap in the eye, I hope. We stick to our guns. The seats are cheap. That has a nasty proletarian look about it. But appearances are deceptive. The proletariat isn't poor. Everybody is poor except Capital and Labour. Between these upper and nether millstones great numbers of decent people are squeezed.

D.H. Lawrence had unconventional opinions, especially about sexuality, and at the time of his death he was thought of mainly as a pornographer who had wasted his considerable talents. But E.M. Forster, in an obituary notice, described him as ""the greatest imaginative novelist of our generation."" Later critics concurred, and Lawrence is now remembered as an important modernist intellectual.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, set in the complicated social landscape of the early 20th century Midlands, dramatizes the strife of the labor movement through the microcosm of one family. The author illustrates, with rawness and vitality, the personal stories, desires, and conflicts that become a battlefield in the struggle for societal change. While the story exposes the vulnerability and exploitation of the working class, it also explores the moral quandaries and transformations of those who perpetuate it. The ideas presented in this compelling book are a powerful reminder of the human cost of industrial progress and the sacrifices made in the name of economic power.
